About This Event

Nicola Benedetti has been called the nation’s favourite classical violinist, but she’s a natural communicator even without her violin – and utterly committed to bringing the joy of music to the widest possible audience. In this morning’s Relaxed Prom she plays highlights from last night’s Prom with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra (see Prom 67). But she’s also the presenter, in an hour-long, informal concert that features Britten’s wonderfully vivid musical seascapes, as well as Bernstein’s exuberant dances from West Side Story, in an environment specially devised for individuals or groups who feel more comfortable attending concerts in less formal surroundings.
